Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Brandon Airport may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 2 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Your edits at various airport articles

Please stop replacing dashes with ndashes at airport articles. Your changes are not in agreement with the WP:AIRPORT guidelines (more specifically WP:AIRPORT-CONTENT). Thanks.--Jetstreamer ^Talk 17:21, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

As far as I can tell, my edits were completely within guidelines (and similar edits have been done on many other airport articles by other users) until you clarified the guidelines yourself, after already reverting all of my edits. I made those edits in a goodwill effort to try and stylistically improve wikipedia. I hope that you will go to every airport article and ensure there are only regular dashes, and not ndashes, being used. I apologize for the problems that these edits have caused.

Disambiguation link notification for September 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Manitoba, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Capital (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Possibly unfree File:Wasagamingmap.JPG

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Wasagamingmap.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you object to the listing for any reason. Thank you. Samuell ^{Lift me up} or _{put me down} 16:20, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

Just a further comment to the automatically generated messages. Thanks for uploading photos of the Riding Mountain area, most of them are as far as I can tell okay from a copyright perspective. The one issue with the file above is that it is a photo of a map that I assume is not your work and still in copyright. Wikimedia Commons' C:Commons:Copyright rules#Simple_checklist does a decent job of explaining what is a complex subject. Of course, if you feel that my assessment is wrong feel free to comment at the the discussion page. Samuell ^{Lift me up} or _{put me down} 16:32, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

Toronto Green Score

Hi JPark99, You may not be aware of this but GreenScore is working with the 50 cities indexed, provinces and the federal government to develop this index. Cities across the country are using it and the online development portal as a tool for city planning. It is by no means 'trivial'. Mayor John Tory's staff was briefed on this project the day he took office; I know this because I briefed his Council Liason. As for ranking, the index itself does not rank, BUT ranking is embedded in the same paragraph (most populous metropolitan, fourth most populous city) The score statistic rank is mentioned because it is significant and source verifiable. I am undoing your reversion..

• Hi Mkevlar, As I explained in my note to you on your talk page, I reverted your edit not because the information is unverifiable or incorrect, but for the reason that I don't believe that the city's green score rating belongs in the first paragraph of the lead section of the Toronto article. I made a suggestion to you that the information and statistics about the city's green rating be included in the Toronto article in a different part of the article. I will start a discussion about this on the Toronto talk page to get input from other users. Thanks, JPark99 (talk) 05:53, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Aer Lingus

Hi,

Fair point, will re update once they update the website, if you click on the flight number it will show the A330-300 equipment even though it says operated by ASSL. Should be removed in a few weeks. Jamie2k9 (talk) 21:33, 10 August 2016 (UTC)

Removal of start/end dates

Can you please explain why you have removed the start/end dates for the seasonal flights at Maurice Bishop International Airport#Passenger. You say they are "unnecessary". Why would useful information be not needed, and you will note that many other passenger pages for other airports have dates for seasonal flights. As an example, I looked at random at a page which I have never previously visited let alone edited: Haneda_Airport#Passenger. Gunner1989 (talk) 13:05, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

I removed the start/end dates for seasonal flights in accordance with Wikipedia:WikiProject Airports/page content. It is specifically stated that start/end dates for seasonal service should not be included. Thanks, JPark99 (talk) 19:13, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

Fair enough, I now know about the dates. However, for Air Canada Rouge, there is a year-round Monday flight and a seasonal Thursday flight in the winter period. I know of a number of other cases, e.g. British Airways increasing flights from Gatwick to Barbados in the winter. How should this be dealt with? Gunner1989 (talk) 20:20, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

It's my understanding that the only distinction that should be made on wikipedia is either year-round or seasonal flights. That said, you can pose this question at Wikipedia:WikiProject Airports/page content to get opinions from other editors with an understanding of airport article format.

Notification of Saboteurest/UrbanNerd SPI

Hi JPark99. Noticed you haven’t edited in over two months. Recall the discussion at Talk:Toronto six-plus months ago, and specifically this and the response? Well I found the time and just initiated a sockpuppet investigation (SPI) at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/UrbanNerd. Pinging Johnny Au as well, who encouraged me to file the SPI. Hope to see you back soon. Hwy43 (talk) 06:48, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi Hwy43. That's good to know, yet it doesn't change the fact that the ultimate outcome of this situation is that UrbanNerd/Saboteurest (or whichever account name this person now uses) was able to effectively have the Toronto article edited to their liking through an official dispute resolution process, after (in my opinion) making nonsensical edits and then instigating a completely unacceptable dialogue with yourself, myself, Johnny Au, and other editors at Talk:Toronto. UrbanNerd/Saboteurest can and will continue to freely repeat this behaviour going forward without consequence by using multiple and changing accounts. I appreciate your great work here and for letting me know about the outcome of the sockpuppet investigation, but it appears that Wikipedia will remain at the mercy of this kind of disruption and outcome to the benefit and desire of users such as UrbanNerd/Saboteurest. While I thoroughly enjoyed researching, editing and contributing to Wikipedia, I think that my time is much better spent being constructive elsewhere as opposed to wasting time here arguing with trolls, and then watching them get their way with the official blessing of Wikipedia. Perhaps a sockpuppet investigation could have been launched by the editors involved with the dispute resolution process? I wish I'd known how to initiate that kind of investigation myself, as I would have done it. It's clear to me that there really is no way to stop or prevent this kind of thing from happening again, and for that reason I have decided to no longer be associated with Wikipedia. I wish you well and good luck. JPark99 (talk) 00:11, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
